Reflective liquid set, best enjoyed at night. We should remember to make friends with our shadows, else they consume us. 
It was so special playing Cosmic Wave in July. I hope this recording brings back fond memories for those who were there to experience it. Big mahalo to our Fractal family for holding space for us, to Off the Grid Productions for their sound expertise, and to the Lush collective for being the inspiration. Bless up

Brooklyn-based DJ and producer @antenes has been a regular on The Bunker line-ups for the past decade, playing both ambient and dancefloor DJ sets as well as live. With a record on LIES and a forthcoming release on The Bunker New York, Antenes  tells us that all of the tracks on this podcast: "are very personal and based on a space of time and experiences where I have had a chance to connect with people at all different moods and hours...When I produce or play live I usually have a specific concept for each track or piece,  but my relationship to DJ-ing is that of an audio journal and marking of a time period; unbound, emotional and without any constraints.  I wanted this mix to go through the different moods I experience on a typical day, especially on a weekend that I perform... some of it is dark and foreboding , but it has a hopeful ending .  More than one track I've cried tears of joy playing out  .  So there is a lot of gratitude in this mix too. Starts out at night, but chases the light."

Dekmantel Records label member Central is part of the Regelbau crew, which is one of the most exciting collectives in dance music at the moment. As well as putting out many records under his own name and as part of Hi Mount, Arhus based Natals Zaks is a record digger and and DJ that defies expectation. Besides that, he also runs Help Recordings alongside his brother, DJ Sports, and makes everything from breakbeat laced ambiance to roughed up house. Last month he stepped up to Dekmantel Records again with his soothing 'Pillow Peace' EP. Before that, he served up his Political Dance series with us and contributed to Part 3 of our 10th Anniversary series. Versatile and vital, he is a breath of fresh air for the scene, as well as our podcast series. 

Stretching his legs over the course of 100 minutes including loads of unreleased material, Central slowly sets the scene with summery ambiance made from pillowy synth clouds and melodies that drift by like a wispy cloud. It’s lazy and hazy and eventually evolves into shimmering pads and more cosmic atmospheres before some breezy, firmly rooted classic house glides you along. Perfectly feel good and with a big heart, this is the only mix you need for a hot day.

Byron the Aquarius is on a roll. As well as being a key proponent in the American house scene, and after a time spent as a producer for others, he is now making very much part of the conversation over in Europe. His music has landed on Theo Parrish’s Sound Signature, Kyle Hall’s Wild Oats and is forthcoming on Eglo. It is warm and deep, with the organic edge and smartly sampled soul that makes US house music so appealing.  A keys player by trade, he is also a formal student of jazz, and all this shines through in his recorded output as well as the records he mixes together all over the world. 

Over the course of an hour for us, Byron serves up breezy and musical house grooves dripping with cosmic keys, jazz looseness and timeless good time vibes. It’s a mix with a big heart and effortless mixing style that manages to be deep but dynamic, and is one of the reasons we are so excited for him to play with us in Amsterdam in August.

The music Dane MacDonald plays and releases on his Common Edit label is as warm as his North Canadian roots are not. Always serving up sets with love, he is a big bearded, long haired dancer at heart, and someone who has a close relationship with west coast disco dons Eddie C and Koosh. Now based in Berlin and still pressing up records that will always fire up a more friendly, cosy party, his reputation has grown beyond the cult. Digging deep through rock, new age and freaky disco, he knows how to throw a party as well as how to throw down records. 

Over the course of 90 minutes he takes us on a sparkling journey where only he knows the destination. One minute you’re lost in a warm and festive disco cut, the next getting down to a low slung boogie track. Heavier drum led house comes later on, before heavyweight dub disco tunes lead us to a jazz-funk crescendo that sizzles with real joy.
